Stillen Ypipe is that the bees in can sounding flex or which ypipe had that problem. I have someone locally selling a stillen ypipe from a 97 max. what are the opinions on that.

Original Stillen has a perfect fit and no noise. got a used one myself. If ou dont want it let me know and I will take it.

 

I have the bugdet y pipe. it has the bees in the can sound and its not that bad.

 

I think this has been more of an installation issue than a design flaw.

 

Ive had my Stillen Ypipe for 6 years now and never heard no bees in a can. It still going like nothing and love it. Im gonna be selling it though cuz I have a spare one that will be going in next week.

 

Not really. It's because all current designs have unequal length downpipes, whereas the original Stillen (emphasis on original, not it's current one) had equal length downpipes.

 

i found these pictures while browsing someones photobucket when i was looking for a new y-pipe i beleive this is the equal stillen

 

x8ver, I tried to reply to your pm and you are unable to recieve pm's, I tried sending you an email and you dont allow to recieve emails so im unable to reply to you. Give me an email address for a reply to your pm.

Thanks

 

not sure, but isnt the stillen a 2 piece design? or is that just the new version. I wish they still made equal length y-pipes.

 

That is indeed the equal-length Stillen unit. Next time I see one for sale I'm snatching it up, I hate this bees in a can crap.

 

possibly.when i get the headers installed we will see.

 

stillen maxima

sent you email

 

my x8ver login has been frozen do not understand I went to update my email address and it does not allow me to post or see anything. That sucks anybody had that happen.

 

I would love to take an equal length ypipe off someone hands. I will spend top dolla too

 

So there are no companies today that make the equal length y-pipe. Hummmmm i would figure when stillen came out with it, everyone from cattman to budget would follow. Maybe we can get cattman to start production of the equal length pipe.

 

how much is he selling u the stillen y-pipe for?

 

I'll fight for it

 

i have a stillen. never had a bees in the can sound problem. i think its a myth or the people that report did not install properly. probably didnt replace the gaskets at the end of the ypipe.

one thing u may want to think about thought that matters more is that the stillen y is aluminzed steel while others are stainless. aluminized will serve you fine in dry states but if its overly rainy or snows alot, u may want to consider a stainless steel option.

 

Do any of you equal length ypipe owners have a catback? If so does it drone at any rpm?

 

no it's doesnt drone with an sp2
